Sometime in the middle of the year, I realized that people don’t print out their pictures. Wha???? While I understand this trend among casual shooters (e.g. the “I shoot maaaaaybe two pictures a week on my iPhone” person), it seems like many of my photographer friends don’t print their pictures. (Wha????) I don’t have too many platforms […]

Last Saturday, two of my roommates and I went on a little road trip to visit our friends in Indianapolis. (Giada stayed behind…and probably wasn’t too happy with us. We owe her many, many walks.) It was a short trip, so I don’t have much to say except for these three things: 1. I was […]

After spending the day as tourists in LA, we decided to head to our hotel to check in and rest up a bit. (Have I mentioned how much we adored Hotel Palomar? It’s always a relaxing and beautiful experience for us – and Giada!) Before we knew it, it was getting dark outside and we were […]

In the last post, I mentioned I’d share pictures from our 24 hours in Los Angeles. When we arrived, the first thing on my mind was food. And because I kept hearing about it, we headed straight to Pink’s Hot Dogs. Since there was a long line and it was a hot day, my husband stayed […]

With the PCH photo book done, here are a few more images from our Pacific Coast Highway road trip last summer: She loves hanging out the window. I must have 100+ pictures of Giada like this. I wouldn’t recommend waiting a year before revisiting vacation photos, but I did enjoy looking back and having my […]

I’ve been at my current job for two years, and at the last two Christmas office parties, I’ve neglected to bring holiday cards for everyone there, which seems to be the thing to do. (I don’t fight tradition, especially the good ones!) I always felt bad leaving the office post-party with a stack of cards […]

I finally finished the Pacific Coast Highway photo book last week. About time! So obviously, I’m feeling like I’ve become somewhat of a pro in travel photo books. (Ha!) I mentioned in a previous post, I had taken about 2500+ pictures during our weeklong trip (because I’m that photographer). How did I whittle that down to 200 pictures to fit in […]

The main reason I started creating my own photo books was so that I would have somewhere to put my images. For example, the week-long road Pacific Coast Highway 2014 road trip yielded over 2500 pictures. While we were on the trip, I took the highlights from each day and posted them to Instagram. When […]

I heard a few years ago that Kate Middleton had an interest in photography and was working on a family photo project. I don’t remember where I read that but I recall being excited that we had this common interest and was like, I want to go shooting with her one day. (I may have a […]

I woke up early this morning and decided to do some photo editing. Who knew that it would get me going faster than coffee? 🙂 (I still had coffee though. Come on now, I’m still human.) As I was laying out the pages of the Pacific Coast Highway book I’m hoping to get done by […]
